THE wedding
Heide. this is mainly for you. okay? hush now. :p
so. the night before felt like exam nerves, bu it slept . i could hear kong moving about the house at about 5am tho. so then i was AWAKE. i semi slept til about 7 when my alarm went off and i got up to get ready! bathtime!
izzy let herself in with the keys i had given her the night before, the boyf was in the basement, keeping away (we never saw each other from half 11 the night before til i set foot on that aisle)
then the florist arrived with gorgeous flowers, she had blocked Sam, my hairdresser off in the road while she was trying to park!
having my hair done was the worst. (gorgeous hair, just, the nerves! the girls were having to distract me!)
then the photographer, Vicky, and her assistant Gavin appeared, poor boy, the first time he saw me i was in a HUGE nude bra and wonder woman knickers!
then the best man appeared. literally i had Iz, Sam, Vicky and Gavin running around after me like you wouldn't believe, and Glyn and Andrew never saw me. it was amazing!
at this time, Guests were arriving at the Venue- for example, Fran and Lala (below)
the car arrived just as iz and i had remembered suncream. oh the drama. dad saw me, we almost cried. we got in the big posh car and set off, then had to go home, to grab the readings book! and off we went again. dad and i were, again, crying when i was about to go down the aisle, izzy and arthur went and off i went...
so there there was the register, iz and me, grandad and me, my parents and me and kong, and izzy, rocking out... and below is Iz trying to get off muddy sweaty Hunters after kong and i had gone for pics taking along a muddy pathway up by a bridge!
then theres table decorations, the amazing cake made by mums friend, then me and, what appears to be a FOLK singer cutting the aforementioned cake!
the eve do! the day was perfect, it all went to plan, without a hitch, sure, arthur didnt want to walk down the aisle, and we missed a couple of photographs, but so what? kong left the mealtime music in the best mans car and we only noticed during the mains. thats IT, thats all that went wrong . pretty good going. all of the people that said if i overplanned it i would be disappointed et al can go bugger off to the bermuda triangle. i freaking rock. i do. lol
and look. he even carried me over the threshold!

Hey! long time no blog, im sorry! i hope you havent forgotten about me...?
after the nasty virus computer i have spent less and less time on here. ive deleted loads of stuff off of facebook, and people off there and off twitter and alsorts, im having a bit of a clear out (tho i really need to crack on with my house)
also trying to plan the wedding (so over this, its boring and annoying and i just want to be married AND WHY CANT PEOPLE RSVP?!?!)
and breathe...
so im on holiday this week and trying to get as much sorted as possible. and my hair. my hair. my hair is AWFUL. my roots are fierce and the rest of my hair is YELLOW and GINGER.
and theres nothing i can do. it needs to rest before the wedding. it has GROWN tho. omg has it grown. this past month it must have done an inch, its suddenly past my shoulders. its brilliant!
i had gotten really disenchanted with my dress. when we went for izzy to have her dress fitting, i tried it on again, i like it better once more. ive been having really bad dreams about it being wrong on the day and stressing and such. i cant see the end result. this isnt a room im decorating slowly, or a book display i can swap about, this is a wedding dress and mine hasnt arrived yet, im still only trying on the store copy which is at least a foot too long for me (cos im ickle, obvs) and a touch too tight (cos im a fat bastard) and its currently just wrong. the lady in the shop said this is common, because its out of my control and its not something i can just take home and play with, i just have to wait.
the florist has gone awol. we have heard nothing. i want my quote else i really need to find someone else (if he fails me im just gonna call David Austin Roses in the Midlands for some bits)
and make up? the girl who has been recommended is someone i used to work with in my previous life. she is saccharine sweet and she may be amazeballs but i dont think i want her doing my make up. it wouldn't feel right, so i have called some other people, and only one person has got back to me, i like her but theres not much to see of her work. im waiting to see about the others calling me back atm before i say a definite yes.
im drinking lots today also, for some reason im majorly thirsty, my period has kicked in so i feel shitty. ugh. but so far the week has been good more or less. im going to clear some shit of my hard drive and then go to bed and look at what we cant afford for our honeymoon...

last night i emailed the florist i want to use for the wedding on facebook.
i asked
he replied
shit shit shit shit. i LOVE this guys work, i pour over the photos that get put up. the stuff he does is amazing!
he knows his shit. and my bridesmaids are meant to be in raspberry pink... turquoise wont go for sure. should i go for navy? i cant have my girls in ivory too. well, i could, but hmmm...
i asked
a couple of quick questions if you could answer them, that would rock!
is it possible to get Anemones in late June?
what colours dont work in the Hey Greens mustardy yellowy coloured main room?
cheers x
he replied
hello there cocker
anemones are going to be a major problem in late june, they have just started to creep back in over the past couple of weeks
the colour to avoid at all costs is pink of any description. the first wedding i ever did there was pink and it looked nothing short of shocking. neutral whites and creams always seem to look the best x

my periods being perfectly mean have brought back the realization that i may never have kids.
what if that operation, the gynae did something that made me infertile, or what ive that pelvic floor infection i had that landed me in hospital rendered me sterile? or what if the boyfs diabetes has somehow made him sterile, or he has slow swimmers from his age? or him being really really hot all the time has killed them all off?
all ive ever wanted it babies. is it too much to ask that i be able to have one? and i want to be a young mum, not some old, set in her ways one, wearing beige with my wrinkles and my kids in disgusting 'old' clothes having no fun.
also no letter from the gynae professor yet. mum asked if id heard anything the other day. and i haven't. they're so slow at these things. i know its unrealistic that i get pregnant with 9 months to go til i get married but i want to get the ball rolling, have all the tests, find out what is so bloody wrong with my internal lady bits that we can get pregnant as soon as the wedding is gone and get on with our family.
none of my cousins have ever had any trouble. my cousins wife came off her contraception and was pregnant within months, without even trying, she told me that herself. ive never asked my others how soon they wanted to try but from an outsiders point of view there never seemed to be any bother.
mum and dad took years to have me. lots of doctors and trying.
surrogacy, IVF and private adoption are all extremely expensive and something we dont, and probably wont ever have the money for. prof o'd is expensive enough and paying hundreds every time i see him is not something i really want, but it is the cheaper option, and it is something i need looking into, and he is very good at his job. apparently.

Honeymoon
why is it called that?
the boyf and i cant decide where to go. or rather, we can decide on lots of places, we just cant agree. he wants to go somewhere and do nothing, see no one, i want to go somewhere and DO stuff, SEE things, have an experience.
he wants to fly to new zealand or india and do nothing, i want to go to america or canada and see and do everything.
there aint no sweetness in this yet! just alot of stings!
the boyf's best suggestion is that we go on separate ones so far...

i am so crap at remembering to blog, i am sorry! nothing much to report. infact im not sure theres anything to report...
hmmm
...
i got a new swimsuit. we're of to centreparcs in september and i plan on going on the waterslides and such. i have never ever been on one before. i am shitting bricks!
also there i shall be doing archery!!! and G will teach me to ride a bike all over again (the last time i was on one was 17 or more years ago, and saying it ended in tears is an understatement. we have a photoshoot booked (corny i know but i want to see what they can do) i have a spa session booked also (to give G some time to himself to read or whathaveyou. so yeh. i have a spotty coral swimsuit :)
i framed loads of pictures and cards and such and hung them on walls and placed them on mantles and such, and the house now looks more home-like, which makes me more relaxed and for some reason, it doesnt look as cluttered now theres stuff everywhere, the clutter blends in... haha :D
i also cant get both my adult bridesmaids in the same place at the same time. and i also might have found THE wedding shoes. theyre purple and G and felicia dont like them and im wondering if theyre too low, but cos i got them at schuh they have a 365 day returns policy and i get married in 11 months so im all good or taking them back if i find others more suited, even if i leave it til after im married!
i went shopping the other day, i bought loooooads of stuff, but, in my defence, some were clothes for centreparcs, some were xmas presents (i am ORGANIZED!) and some were a leaving present for Kristiana Marie, who i shall miss like an arm. some were also little things for me... in my defence, one was a useful diary (cos i dont like my hugely expensive filofax) and some were notepads for work.
that is all. i suck. kthnxbye!
p.s. i have almost fully sorted my study!
p.p.s the living room is PERFECT
p.p.p.s i appear to be getting fatter
p.p.p.p.s glyn has my car cos his has broken (AGAIN!) and it is PISSING it down outside, it is horrific.
hmmm

on a nicer note...
The wedding party is now as stands-
The boyf is the groom
I'm obvs the bride
Andrew is the best man
Georgi is a big girl bridesmaid
Izzy is a big girl bridesmaid
Florence is a mini bridesmaid
Cerys is a mini bridesmaid
Arthur is a mini ring bearer
I think that's it, all of us!
More good news is that I'm meeting Andrew this week for the first time! As I may of mentioned before, I've never met any of the boyf's family (all down to them) and Andrew is the first of his friends I have met! I have met old colleagues of his before that he loved. And I guess Andrew fits into that category, tho G asking him to be best man must mean something :)

thoughts in my head right now
im depressed i knocked/dropped my blackberry in the bath. really depressed.
what if i dont have an evening 'do' for my wedding? i want it small, id be happy not to be there allllllll day and night. i could invite a few more peeps to the (seven minute) ceremony and meal and just have it at that?
i have it at 29 family members (if a cousin would sprog that would make it 30!)
none of the boyfs fam are invited for obvious reasons.
i want to invite some people but not others and i know one without the other will pretty much cause ww3
balls
